Re: euLibnet and IRC
Hi Peter,
I "attempted" to help Ryan Breen get an IRC client going using euLibnet
(and also I tried euTcp4u) and had no success.
I "suspected" the problem lies in the fact you need an "Ident" server
running on your own PC. This allows IRC servers to verify who you
say you are.
I tried using external Ident servers but had no success.
Possibly the ident server needs to be built into the client in which case
both euLibnet and euTcp4u won't work because they both use blocked
sockets and Euphoria doesn't allow threads. Possibly I just had poor code
and it is possibly both wrappers could work as well!!!
I "think" the only way possibly would be to use the winsock wrappers which
can be found through the archive. It will be more difficult to implement as
you need to use pure winsock instead of using higher level libraries.
About my home page ... all the files have been removed for some reason and
I can't get an answer from Yahoo as to why.
A FAQ page says it "possibly" because of a breach of the terms of conditons
but I can't get it confirmed. (and don't know what I would have breached!)
If you (or anyone) want any of my software please email me privately and
I'll
send it to you (smithr at ix.net.au).
